Long Island’s congressional delegation split along party lines Thursday, March 5, as the U.S. House voted on a resolution aimed at limiting President Donald Trump’s ability to conduct further military strikes against Iran without congressional approval.

The measure failed in a 219-212 vote, defeating an effort to require the president to seek authorization from Congress before continuing military action against Iran. The resolution was introduced under the War Powers Resolution, which was enacted during the Vietnam War to give Congress a greater role in decisions about U.S. military engagements.
